    Hey Peter, thanks for listening, and wow, that was a keen observation....Besides my Beatles influence, I have huge Genesis influences, that I did put out in this song...I let the inner Gabriel come out in the end "all roads lead to America"...I love dramatics in songs, as you can tell...and I am glad I could use this song as a vehicle....thanks again for listening! Richard
